A large archaeological site in the middle of Cambodian
jungle. Among the ruins, overgrown with lush vegetation, we can
see a few trucks, tents and some excavation holes in the ground. A
few dozens of PEOPLE, including scientists and local workers
stroll over the site.

Over the whole area dominates a single, huge ancient Khmer - style
tower.

Then we can see a spacious, fiber made tent, standing near a
large hole in the ground.
CUT TO:

INT. THE HOLE IN THE GROUND

On the inside, the hole is dark and misty. The only source of
light is from the gap above, the ray of light revels a group of
WORKERS opening an ancient stone gate.

The gate opens slowly, raising clouds of dust. We can see
WORKERS looking curiously inside the dark room, behind the gate.
As they let some light inside the room, we recognize that it is a
burial chamber. The walls are covered with some rusty
illustrations and in the middle of the chamber lies an oddly
modern looking, titanium SARCOPHAGUS.

The first person who dares to approach it is A MAN IN A WHITE
JACKET, than he stops, a few steps in front of the sarcophagus,
starring at it in a silent amazement.

TITLE SCREEN

FADE TO:

EXT. USA, CITY, OUTSIDE THE MUSEUM - NIGHT

The museum building is brightly illuminated, a CROWD is
queuing outside the front door. There is a big BANNER announcing
the opening of the exhibition of the ancient Cambodian art on the
facade of the building
CUT TO:

INT. MUSEUM, EXHIBITION HALL - NIGHT

The whole room is in total darkness. A single beam of light
is pointed at some kind of an OBJECT hidden under a huge red
canvas. We can barely see shapes of PEOPLE, crowded around the
object. Among them, a sexy - looking, busty BLONDE IN A RED GOWN
stands out from the crowd.

The MAN IN A WHITE JACKET approaches the object, his steps
rumbling in the absolute silence.
Now, we can hear a laud applause. As it slowly stops, the MAN
grabs the canvas, looks at the BLONDE and he grins.

And then he pulls off the canvas.

A SCREAM (V.O.)

We can see a surprised MAN's face, staring at the crowd. Then
he slowly turns around and looks up.

The removed canvas revealed the SARCOPHAGUS, wide opened. A dead
body of a man in a security uniform is half - hanging over the
edge of the sarcophagus.

The MAN looks again at the crowd. Suddenly people are starting to
run.
CUT TO:

INT. MUSEUM CORRIDORS- NIGHT

The hallways, the corridors of the museum are filled with
people running in panic. The MAN tries to find the BLONDE but he
can't find her anyway. She is unable to find him as well.

All of the sudden the lights go out.

MANY SCREAMS (V.O.)

We can barely see shapes of people in the faint moonlight,
shining inside through the museum windows.

The MAN IN A WHITE JACKET is lying on the floor, in the spot
of the moonlight. Everything is dead silent. He slowly gets on his
feet an tries to look around but it is far too dark to see
anything.

He reaches into his pocket, pulls out a zippo lighter and tries to
ignite it a few times. When he finally succeeds, he notices - in
terror - that he is surrounded by dozens of corpses lying
lifelessly on the floor around him.
CUT TO:

INT. MUSEUM - NIGHT

The MAN IN A WHITE JACKET is walking alone, through the empty
halls of the museum, searching for the blond in the red dress. All
the rooms and corridors are plunged in darkness and in ominous
silence.

The corpses are lying virtually everywhere - on the floor, on the
stairs, some are even impaled on the chandelier.

Eventually, the MAN notices an open door.
He runs up to them and looks inside. On the other side of the
long, empty room he can see a shape of the BLONDE IN THE RED
DRESS. He walks over to her, grabs her shoulder and turns her face
to him.
But instead of her gentle face he can see a disgusting, moist
snout of an ALIEN looking back at him with a pair of huge insect -
like eyes.

Horrified, MAN takes a step back and tries to run, but the doors
behind him shut all by themselves.

ALIEN slowly approaches the MAN, the red gown slips on the floor,
showing a strange, skinny body, which looks like it has been made
of thin wooden sticks.
ALIEN removes the blond hair and throws them away like a wig, then
he reaches out his other hand toward the man and opens it.
The MAN sees that he is holding a small, glass GLOBULE.

MAN takes a step forward and looks closer at the object. Inside
the GLOBULE he is able to see the miniaturized BLONDE IN THE RED
DRESS, apparently unconscious.

He wants to grab the globule, but the ALIEN withdraws his hand
immediately.

The MAN gives the ALIEN a look of agonized incomprehension, and
the ALIEN slowly points to the ceiling.
MAN looks up, and sees thousands of stars sparkling in the
midnight sky.

(He begins to understand, that the alien demands his help
with going back to... wherever it came from, in exchange for the
blonde in the red dress.)

The MAN spreads his hands helplessly. Seeing that the ALIEN
angrily points at the poster showing the huge ancient Khmer -
style tower of the archaeological site, where the alien's
sarcophagus had been found.
The MAN shakes his had, like he was saying 'no'. Then the ALIEN
furiously raises the GLOBULE as if he wanted to smash it over the
floor.
The MAN falls on his knees, points at the picture and nods.
CUT TO:

INT. AIRPORT - DAY

A lonely MAN IN A WHITE JACKET walks across the airport
terminal pushing a baby stroller. He goes to the passport check
and gives his ticket to the FEMALE FLIGHT OFFICER. The OFFICER
checks his ticket, then surveys him for moment. Then she looks at
the stroller, smiles and tries to uncover the baby's blanket.
Seeing that the MAN rapidly starts to walk into the jet bridge.
As he is walking alone, in the bridge he slightly uncovers the
blanket and for a moment he looks at the ALIEN hunched inside the
stroller.
CUT TO:

WE CAN SEE A PLANE flying in the clear blue sky.
FADE TO WHITE
FADE TO:

EXT. CAMBODIA, JUNGLE, A FORMER ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITE - EARLY
AFTERNOON

We can see the exact same site as in the beginning of the
movie, only this time it appears abandoned and lifeless.

A MAN pushing a baby stroller comes out from between the
trees. When he stops, the ALIEN slowly emerges from the stroller.
It looks at the MAN for a moment then he crouches and puts a small
glass GLOBULE on the grass in front of him. Then it walks away and
disappears inside ruined building (the one with the single tower).
The MAN slowly approaches the GLOBULE but as he is half - way the
ground starts to shake powerfully. He is unable to maintain his
balance and fells down.
The quake is getting more and more powerful when suddenly the
Khmer - tower explodes into thousands of stony pieces.
A beam of white light shoots into the sky and all we can hear is a
deep reverberating noise. Everything disappears in a white
blinding light.
FADE TO WHITE
FADE IN

We can see the MAN lying on the grass. He shakes his had and gets
back on his feet. For a moment he admires the burning remains of
the Khmer - temple, then he looks at the BLONDE IN THE RED DRESS
lying on the grass in the place where the globule used to be. He
walks over to her, he kneels besides her and hugs her unconscious
body.
They remain in this position for a moment.
CUT TO:

EXT. CAMBODIA, JUNGLE, A FORMER ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITE - EARLY
AFTERNOON

We can see the exact same site as in the beginning of the
movie, only this time it appears abandoned and lifeless.
Instead of the a ancient Khmer - style tower, there is huge a
puff of a black smoke.
